You can't use gems from within Shoes, at least not in the usual way.
Shoes incorporates its own Ruby interpreter so you need to either give
it an explicit path to ActiveRecord's location or bundle ARec into a
nearby directory in Shoes-land.
Shoes is I think going to have some kind of gems thing going on in the
nearish future but you'd have to check with _why to get the real 411.
